There is not enough information to give feedback on whether this project idea is suitable. What are the specific tasks you'd like the student to work on? In general, I'm sure there are well-defined 12-week project ideas around the GDB stub. New features are easy to propose and are usually well-defined (e.g. implement these commands that are documented in the GDB protocol documentation). Cleaning up code is less clear and it would depend on exactly what needs to be done. Interns will not have a background in the QEMU codebase and may not be able to make judgements about how to structure things, so I would be more careful about refactoring/cleanup projects. Please see my talk about QEMU GSoC for guidelines on project ideas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNVCX7YMUL8&t=19m11s http://vmsplice.net/~stefan/stefanha-kvm-forum-2016.pdf Hope this helps, Stefan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jailhouse" group.
